Narellan - NSW

Narellan has a long history of over 200 years of white settlement starting before that of Camden. In the 1810s there were numerous land grants in the area by Governor Macquarie. Of particular significance was the grant to William Hovell in 1816, who named it “Narelling”, after which the town would be called. However, it was only in 1827 after much indecision from authorities that the township was established. John Macarthur of Camden Park was having similar disputes with the town of Camden, but his disputes would only be resolved after his death in 1834.

Narellan now is a busy suburban centre within the Camden local government area. Its privately owned shopping complex, Narellan Town Centre, services the area west of Campbelltown. Adjacent light industrial areas of Narellan and Smeaton Grange are able to service all the likely needs of travelers in the way of repairs and replacement parts.
